Abstract

ABSTRACT Studies about curriculum internationalisation in higher education frequently report poor academic staff engagement hindering implementation in practice. However, such research does not consider the organisational context in which academics operate. This research applies an organisational change perspective to explore how the context affects the process of engagement and implementation and what to change (content). In a comparative case study of four disciplinary contexts in a West-European university from 2012 to 2020, we disclose the perceptions and experiences of twenty-nine academic staff through in-depth interviews. The academics explain how multiple contextual tensions and inadequate resource management complicate their engagement with curriculum internationalisation. Still, they also reveal evidence of many achievements and strong individual drivers with curriculum internationalisation. Our findings show how disciplinary contextual influences and dynamics create specific perceptions and experiences of curriculum internationalisation in each study programme. This article presents a comprehensive framework of organisational change to explain and facilitate academic staff engagement with curriculum internationalisation in disciplinary communities.
学术人员参与课程国际化:一个组织变革的视角
关于高等教育课程国际化的研究经常报告教学人员参与度低,阻碍了实践中的实施。然而,这样的研究并没有考虑到学者们所处的组织环境。本研究运用组织变革的视角来探讨环境如何影响参与和实施的过程,以及改变什么(内容)。本文以2012 - 2020年一所西欧大学四个学科背景的比较案例为研究对象,通过深度访谈揭示了29位学术人员的看法和经验。学者们解释了多重背景紧张和资源管理不足如何使他们参与课程国际化。尽管如此,它们也揭示了许多成就的证据,以及课程国际化的强大个人驱动力。我们的研究结果表明,学科背景的影响和动态如何在每个学习项目中创造课程国际化的特定感知和体验。本文提出了一个全面的组织变革框架,以解释和促进学术人员参与学科社区的课程国际化。
